Can any Icelanders explain the point of this to me?
No we can not. This is fucked up. It’s one rich guy’s hobby:
Im Icelandic and I can confirm this. This massive asshole (Kristjan Loftson) has plenty of money and one hobby, killing whales. He as lost aprox. 20m€ on whaling in the years he has been hunting them.
Why are you government or judges so shady when it comes to this? Like, what is the actual reasson, that this is not forbidden and nobody is in jail? You have a democracy in iceland, right?
And here is the asshole making a whole nation look bad yet again;
I’m not from Iceland, but $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
I’ve only heard about perfumes that once contained whale juices? …What do these whales produce in terms of raw and or commercial material. or is it for sport these days? not that any of it is okay.

Actually, don’t try it. Just encourages hunting.

Sanction them. I love Iceland but the way I see it, sanction them and tell them to knock it off. Capitalism sucks but use whatever few means we have in that system to at least right some wrongs.

Nice one Iceland
I heard that India is allowing people to wack moneys over the head real good now. It used to be that you couldn’t hit them little fellers. Not the cows though. You can’t even eat their brain through a small straw like you are told to do to monkeys in some areas of Asia. Regardless, vegans like me can’t get into the action. We just massacred a bag of pistachios and that’s about as far as we go.
Know why they’re called right whales? It’s because they’re the right ones to hunt.
Did we learn nothing from Star Trek 4?
